Having the same problem I am grateful to paddy for a workround. The real issue is that the settings put in are unstable, so should an earlier version of Libre Office not suffer this?

Further to my appeal for help: we discovered that the router required a reset. Problem solved - so to those who thought about it, my thanks and I hope that the solution (switching the router off for...

Using 12.04 on my other system, I have lost my internet connection (BT) while the network is shown to be connected.

How do I resolve this? Why did it suddenly happen when it worked fine before....

Having instigated complaints about Lexmark and Epson printers, I have to take it all back. Eat Humble Pie.
Why?
Because with Ubuntu 11.04 and 11.10 they didn't simply self install, but all the...

Thank you for that tip. Sadly all I succeeded in doing was jumping out of Google and because of my security system, spent an age getting back here!

I do note that it appears as if there simply...

I am sure that someone else may have experienced this but I am unable to identify my second monitor. This was fine on 11.10 but isn't operational 12.04lts. My system comprises: HP Pavilion...

I installed a fresh Ubuntu 12.04 onto my HP Pavilion (Entertainment) laptop. It all went superbly, with one exception (so Far). In System Settings > Displays, the system fails to find my external HP...

Like all previous writers, I too find 11.10 to be slowing down. Boot and start-up now take 5 minutes, and I can only think that the number of programmes on the drive, may influence this. Any external...

Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneric Ocelot)? on HP Pavilion dv6 accesses Internet and services perfectly with wired Thompson Speedtouch. Install of TP-Link W8901G results in No Internet. The wireless system...

Despite trying all the suggestions my own move from wired to wireless modem router has been an absolute failure. ADSL - found, All port lights OK, but no internet EVER.
Let me explain;
On my...

Thanks SeijiSensei, You may well be right. It is a pop server from BTInternet, which hasn't been changed, well not until I started to try it out. There is no Imap facility with them, and their...

The damnedest thing. My colleague runs Windows 7, well someone had to. His fault free experience with Thunderbird soured a few days ago when he found that the same message keeps popping into his...

After certain 'problems' with Kubuntu 11.10, I decided to see if they appeared in Ubuntu 11'10 which I set up as dual boot. Ubuntu did not have the conflicts and now I want to remove Kubuntu and use...

Windows 7 does have one function I like: the interface between my printers. For EVERYTHING else, give me Linux. Especially as I have tried MS Win7 with the MS Bluetooth Mouse on a Bluetooth enable...

I have Windows 7 on my new laptop but retained Kubuntu on my desktop. My desktop is some 8 years old and still boots faster, loads cleaner and runs smoother than the top of the range...

I am a confirmed Kubuntu user, but when my desktop computer started to fail, I bought a smart HP Pavilion laptop with, you guessed it, Windows 7. After setting up, installing 2 hours of updates (on...

I have looked, followed the chain, downloaded the package and I shall attempt an install and test once the computer battery is v=charged, Thank You

Forgive me if this seems obvious but: Using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on a Compaq 615 laptop I am attempting to to get the T-Mobile dongle (Huawei Model E-1750) to work. Not having the key (It is in the...

To all who have been kind enough to respond, a heartfelt Thank You. For now I shall wait until I replace the hard drive (age is starting to worry me - and its lack of capacity). I do have another...

To many it may be that the answer to my query is blindingly obvious - but having now run with Kubuntu for more than a year successfully, I am now trying to rationalise my software. The KDE front-end...

I assist the older user who no longer has the support of an office IT unit and also teach new elderly users. Invariably they have one or other Windows package. My first job, invariably is to remove...

Thank you all for your comments. My objection to Lexmark is not that it has no Linux support or Linux software, albeit minimal, it is that the company has a real attitude problem. We are not...

Having sold off my excellent Canon laser printer for lack of Kubuntu software, I replaced it with Lexmark. The C543dn has duplexing and separate colour toners for its laser system, and allegedly a...

As a business I could not afford to constantly re-licence Windows, pay someone to maintain it, and sit and wait for it to recover from a daily crash. Whether it plays games or not is irrelevant, but...

I am sure that I have read somewhere within the Forums about some of the issues regarding the installation and setting up of Epson P50 printers. From memory, most of the problems were easily...
